I picked up a copy of Skylanders for my son and now need to update to 4.3 and am a little lost on how to proceed.

My first thought was to just go ahead and do the update from the skylander disk, let it do its thing and then do a fresh softmod following the guide from this site. To be honest I don't know if that is the correct way to do things though because to be honest I'm not even sure if I've loaded anything on the wii to prevent updates......

Can somebody point me in the direction of a thread (i tried to search but got lost in all the clutter) that outlines the correct way to proceed?

Thanks.

guide-how-run-post-system-check.htmlinstall-priiloader-block-online-disc-updates-more.html- Download Priiloader v0.7 (the latest) from- HERE- Downoad the hacks for priiloader from here hacks_hash.zip- Extract the file and put the hacks_hash.ini file in the "priiloader" folder.SD card structure:SD:/apps/priiloader/hacks_hash.iniYour priiloader files should look like this.Now, turn on your Wii while pressing the "reset" button; priiloader should load. Select "System Menu Hacks" and enable the hacks you want.I recommend: "Block Online Updates", "Block Disc Updates" hacks.And you may need to update your cIOS. The original disc runs from IOS56, You could install these things individually, or you could update your entire mod using the Softmod ANY Wii guide (it will do all of the above plus get everything current).Just follow it starting at the spoiler "Softmods with Homebrew Channel installed" or from Chapter 2Guide: Softmod ANY Wii>http://www.wiihacks.com/wii-games/98...ure-guide.html

Edit: First do the sys check, it will tell you if you have priiloader and all the cIOS you have. Then you could install priiloader and update your cIOS and you may play the disc or try any USB Loader to play the game.

You could also go to the Soft Mod Any Wii Guide and start from Soft Mod With Homebrew Channel Installed.(I Recommend This Option.)
Follow that guide all the way through , if you choose to remod your wii.

Went to do as instructed and first issue.

Held in reset button and turned on Wii. PriiLoader v0.4 pops up. When I select system menu hacks it brings up the following error:

"Failed to mount fat device. Unable to find hacks.ini on nand".

Forget it. I'm an idiot. Forgot to put SD card back in Wii.

What I would do to be honest with you is....
You could also go to the Soft Mod Any Wii Guide and start from Soft Mod With Homebrew Channel Installed.(I Recommend This Option.)
Follow that guide all the way through , if you choose to re-mod your wii.

One, that priiloader is outdated.
Two,All of your ios's are bugged, they don't need to be.
Three, that guide will update everything...from your ios's to the cios's and your priiloader and HBC.
The link to the Guide is at the bottom of my signature.
